Soyer, Raphael (1899-1987) Russian born artist who later worked and taught in New York city. Known for his compassionate social realist views of people, he was an outstanding painter and
printmaker. One of four brothers (two others were also painters --Moses and Isaac).
I spent an evening with Raphael Soyer and his wife Rebecca at the restaurant "Cafe
des Artistes" in New York in the early 1980's. He was as compelling in person as his art would have you believe.

A fine impression of this very rare image with large full margins (a very small printer unobtrusive printer's crease in the lower left corner of the image)--published by the NYC-WPA
with their stamp lower left

A fine impression with full margins---Published by ASSOCIATED AMERICAN
ARTISTS----titled by the artist "The Model"
(Soyer often produced variants in his titles
probably by accident---he did use the name
"model" often in his work.)
